-As a rotational athlete it’s important that you take care of your throwing arm. Don’t start when it starts hurting, get ahead to help prevent it from occurring. Our Foundations Program is a great program to start getting ahead!

-Poor movement is the root cause of all athletic failures. In this video we have one our Foundation Program Athlete Jack Jack Reberedo performing Kneeling 1- arm Y.

Been hammering this message! HOW do you know you

Been hammering this message!

HOW do you know you got better?

We now utilize @hawkindynamics force plates to measure progress in the weight room.

Here is a report on the average power outputs of all the athletes in our HS development program!! On average athletes that trained 2-4 times per week in our program improved their rate of force development by 9-10%!

Why is this important?

Think of this as your engine. The goal should be going from a Honda Civic to a Ferrari. The players in the program this summer got 10% closer!

Keep an eye for more summer progress reports!

Do you give yourself enough time to optimally load

Do you give yourself enough time to optimally load the joints responsible for power development?

There are optimal joint angles for each portion of the body when the goal is force output.

It is based on how you are physically built and what you have control over.

The value of understanding how an athlete is built gives you insight into what positions they can get into. Once you know this, you can coach them on proper execution of drills like this based on their individual capabilities.

Once you understand this, you can dig a layer deeper and determine how they are wired.

Form influences function and vice versa!

We do this via @hawkindynamics force plates. This next layer gives even more insight on how to individualize an athletes program and also how to coach them.

This athlete is extremely quick. @irenesk1m is elite at accelerating.

She doesn’t do the best at utilizing all her power, which this drill is focused on. As she lands she is cued to get into as deep of a squat as she can control and then explode out into her broad jump.

This is very similar to her swing. She tends to be very quick to the ball but doesn’t utilize her lower half as well as she could to hit the ball for power.

We use as much objective data to support development in all areas. Are you quick but not powerful? This could be a drill for you!

Every athlete has a story. Every story has a begin

Every athlete has a story. Every story has a beginning, a middle, and the end.

We are in the middle of @caleb.Elam’s story. He has worked consistently for the past year and a half so he can throw without back pain. With the help of two awesome parents, several doctors, and lots of hard work, here is his first bullpen back on the mound.

Very excited to see his continued progress!

No matter where you are at in your story, KPI wants to be a part of it! We have helped 100’s of athletes achieve crazy goals!

Are you ready?

The current model for player development is called

The current model for player development is called the “Participation Model” the more I participate the better I get, and more likely I get to the next level.

Youth to HS to College to Pro

This model currently has a 90% failure rate HS to College and a 99% failure rate College to Pro.

Why?

It focuses on completely subjective measurements to determine who is the best. Wins and losses, batting average, ERA etc.

It also relies on amateur evaluators. The players deemed the best at youth ages 12-14 are expected to be the most successful at the next level. But time and time again, we know this isn’t true!

That’s why we aim to flipping this model on its head. Objective measurements and assessments to determine player potential.

@aidan.keenan13 is getting a lot of attention right now but he wasn’t the “best” player when he was 12-14 years old.

He was the kid who pitched on Saturday cause he didn’t throw hard enough to blow it by the competition in bracket play on Sunday.

Our assessment process at the start of his 7th grade year highlighted a few physical traits that would give him a ton of advantages when he got older. He just needed to train hard and focus on developing in the weight room and stay HEALTHY!!!

Proud to know the habits he developed at a young age, his consistent effort, and ultimately trust in a process that uses objective data to guide his development is paying huge dividends!
